robby bowling - the times, our times lyrics

[verse 1]
where’s the thunder when you need rain
wheres the wind for our sails
do we need answers for logic
or is it we’re all supposed to fail
isn’t the need for the greedy

[verse 2]
just addiction and (&) l+st
whereas the needs for the poor man
got lost in all the fuss
once we rejoiced with spirited songs
that spoke of healing the soul
but when your blindness impels you

[verse 3]
there’s nowhere to go
there is a frivolous nature
of the beast once called man
who bеcame lost in his grandeur
seems he just rеfused to understand
we have all known our share of failures

[verse 4]
of all sorts and (&) all kinds
but the largest of all our failures
was the plunder of our minds
the gifted child was nurtured
given direction as well as love
kindness cost us nothing
for it was god’s gift from above
[verse 5]
so what happened on this voyage
that became the ship of fools
the sails now so torn and (&) tattered
did they not follow the rules
there’s always darkness in the shadows

[verse 6]
but there’s a guide if you can still hear
but the greatest danger of all
is the one we call fear
in every bar and (&) every measure
and in every note, we can play
there should emotional treasures

[verse 7]
that can inspire our everyday
but what came of our dreams
do i need to even ask about prayers
whatever happened to divine healing
or even those who still cared
well something is missing

[verse 8]
and it’s far more than being confused
it seems we’ve run in every direction
than the one we should have used
was this just a fool’s errand
and what’s left to unfold
[verse 9]
once we could whisper in silence
and a lover’s hand to still hold
once this life was so simple
we took a breath and (&) a step
and we still understood at times

[verse 10]
we would all need some help
but who fostered the greed
who put a price on those acts
now there’s a judas in every corner
who’ll put a knife in our back

[verse 11]
i now see ruins and (&) squalor
and now many houses of wh0res
spirits & souls are now lost
and now walk along the shore
the town criers are selling
more than a myth and a pill

[verse 12]
they are selling misery and (&) heartache
cloaked as a thrill
is there a moral to this story
well it was written long ago
remember athens and (&) rome
remember the power of gold
[verse 13]
it should have been inspiring
instead of the ruins we now see
but the cowards don’t care
when it’s the others that bleed
is this the sign of the times

[pre+chorus]
or is this a road sign from days past
the pastures are now barren
but is the die all but cast
i may well die once more in battle
because truth does carry weight
and time is but a moment
and this one won’t wait

[chorus]
the times, our times
we reminisce, we share
held promises, hope and (&) faith
we could have been so much more
but who am i but a traveler
and i met you on this road
remember this moment with a smile
maybe it will lighten the load
